IL-17 and IL-23 inhibitors have shown successful results in improving skin lesions in the treatment of moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis. However, psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory disease characterized by systemic inflammation including joints in addition to skin lesions. Therefore, in this retrospective and observational cohort study, we aimed to evaluate the effect of IL-17 inhibitors (secukinumab and ixekizumab) and IL-23 inhibitors (risankizumab and guselkumab) on systemic inflammation in psoriasis.

Background: Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory skin disease with a genetic predisposition and autoimmune component, often treated with immunomodulators such as biologic therapies.
Objectives: In this study, the authors evaluated the effectiveness and safety of two of these over a 52-week treatment period.
Methods: A double-center retrospective cohort study was conducted, enrolling patients with moderate to severe psoriasis who received either guselkumab or risankizumab at dermatology clinics for a minimum of 52-weeks.

Obesity is associated with several other comorbidities, including psoriasis, which is a chronic autoimmune skin disease. Adipocytes produce pro-inflammatory signaling molecules, namely adipokines and classic cytokines, that drive increased inflammation axnd may contribute to the pro-inflammatory pathways driving psoriasis disease pathogenesis.

Background: While IL-23 inhibitors, which include guselkumab, tildrakizumab, and risankizumab, are currently FDA-approved solely for the treatment of psoriasis, several other inflammatory skin conditions have been associated with elevated IL-23 levels. The purpose of this review is to summarize and interpret the literature surrounding the off-label uses of IL-23 inhibitors in dermatologic practice.
Methods: We conducted searches on PubMed and for clinical trials, observational studies, case series, and case reports assessing use of the three IL-23 inhibitors for non-psoriatic dermatologic conditions.
